A Valentines Day Table Setting

Every year, since I was little, my mom and I would make decorations and decorate the table for a fancy Valentines dinner.  This year was the first time in a couple of years that we had the fancy Valentines dinner. 

Here is the finished table setting.

I made a mobile to hang over the table.  The top frame is made from four shish kabob skewers glued together between two pieces of felt.  I cut hearts out of patterned scrapbook paper and tied those at lengths to the frame.  For the finishing touch I cut pieces of ribbon and ties those onto the frame.  The completed project gives you a fun, easy, and festive mobile.


I found on Pinterest, a picture of a napkin folded like a rose.  This is how it turned out.  Very cute... I added fresh cut rose leaves to give it a little greenery since I didn't have green napkins.


I made wine glass markers out of felt, personalized for each person with their initial. 


I made these felt roses to set on each place setting.  It added the perfect final touch.


It was a wonderful Valentines Day spent with my family!
